Control Command Escape has posted a new review of Castle Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse, scheduled for release today by Feral Interactive. The fairytale platforming game is a re-imagining of the SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive game of the same name and gives players the chance to take the role of Mickey as he sets off to save the kidnapped Minnie Mouse from her captor, the evil witch Mizrabel.

The levels are 2.5D, and look absolutely stunning, but this does mean that occasionally you'll have to move Mickey along the depth axis. Although the controls are a little less fluid in these instances (as they always are when unexpectedly taken to the third dimension), it does give rise to some novel gameplay moments and some puzzle-solving. One particularly memorable moment for me was a brief sequence involving a magic mirror, and there were plenty of those moments where I was impressed by the imagination on show in one way or another.
